Journal ArticleDOI
Community structures of fecal bacteria in cattle from different animal feeding operations.
Orin C. Shanks,Catherine A. Kelty,S. L. Archibeque,Michael B. Jenkins,Ryan J. Newton,Sandra L. McLellan,Susan M. Huse,Mitchell L. Sogin +7 more
TL;DR: Network analysis demonstrated that annotated sequences clustered by management practice and fecal starch concentration, suggesting that the structures of bovine fecal bacterial communities can be dramatically different in different animal feeding operations, even at the phylum and family taxonomic levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phylogenetic diversity of drinking water bacteria in a distribution system simulator
TL;DR: To characterize the composition of microbial populations in a distribution system simulator (DSS) by direct sequence analysis of 16S rDNA clone libraries by direct sequences analysis of16S r DNA clone libraries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improved HF183 quantitative real-time PCR assay for characterization of human fecal pollution in ambient surface water samples

TL;DR: The new TaqMan HF183/BacR287 assay should provide more accurate estimations of human-derived fecal contaminants in ambient surface waters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of genetic markers from the 16S rRNA gene V2 region for use in quantitative detection of selected Bacteroidales species and human fecal waste by qPCR.
Richard A. Haugland,Manju Varma,Mano Sivaganesan,Catherine A. Kelty,Lindsay Peed,Orin C. Shanks +5 more
TL;DR: Analysis for multiple individual Bacteroidales species may be useful in identifying human fecal pollution in environmental waters, as suggested by results of this study.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantitative CrAssphage PCR Assays for Human Fecal Pollution Measurement.
TL;DR: Findings confirm that viral crAssphage qPCR assays perform at a similar level to well-established bacterial human-associated fecal-source-identification approaches, which could become important water quality management and research tools.
